Proof that translation is thorny terrain. We reference a lot of stories from QuePasa.com here on VL but the headline of this one really stood out to me for obvious reasons:
Santana makes thousands of Peruvians vibrate in concert
Oh, goodness.
Lima, Peru, March 22, 2006 (Notimex).- Mexican guitarist Carlos Santana made thousands of Peruvians vibrate in a concert last Tuesday at the Monumental Stadium, east of Lima, the Peruvian media said today.
Is that a good or a bad thing? And is it legal to do that in public?
